The Flat Earth Mindset And The True Impact Of The Pandemic

Published: Jan. 5, 2021, 11 a.m.

The year 2020 has been defined in large part by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite its obvious impact on the world’s economy, health and well-being, there are still people who routinely underplay or even deny the existence of the threat. It’s an amazing testament to the selectivity of the human brain that a person can literally sit a few blocks away from a food line and still think the virus “isn’t as bad as some people made it seem.” This is due to the same quirk in our brains that explains the many people who believe that the earth is flat. Bill Stierle and Tom begin this episode with a profound discussion of how this mindset prevails in many Americans and how it causes a conflict between the need for safety and the need for freedom that shouldn’t even be an issue for us. Listen in and reflect on how we can enable ourselves and the nation to deal with this massive problem more effectively.
